Hello,
The AWK script converts .vcs files into XAPIA format files that can then
be dragged and dropped on the Calendar icon of the front panel to
insert an appointment in the CDE calendar.
I have written a simple AWK program to convert .vcs files into
XAPIA format files that can then be dragged and dropped on the Calendar
icon of the front panel to insert an appointment in the CDE calendar.
Initial version:
The program has some limitations. For the moment, it ignores ToDo items
and only converts appointment items. Also, it has to convert

and 365.25 days for a year instead of using the correct duration for
leap years and for months. So the duration of an appointment can
be sometimes calculated incorrectly.
Appointments in the local time are not handled very well. The script
assumes that the local time is UTC+1.
If you wish to include it with the CDE sources or to post it on the Wiki
documentation, I agree to release it under MIT license.

email list on Solaris x86 that also does the vcal to XAPIA

Version 2.2.4:
- improvements to the script to handle repeating appointments.
The script supports appointments that repeat every N week/month/days.
- easter.awk: script that creates appointments for (Roman Catholic)
Easter, Ascencion Day and Whit Sunday.
Easter, Ascension Day and Whit Sunday.
Best wishes,
Current version:
Edmond Orignac
- added support for ToDo items.
- added support for numeric timezones (TZ:+NN or TZ:-NN).
